{{Short description|Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens}} {{Infobox_gene}} '''Zinc finger, FYVE domain containing 27''' is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ZFYVE27 gene.<ref name="entrez">{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: Zinc finger, FYVE domain containing 27 | url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/118813 }}</ref>

== Function ==

This gene encodes a protein with several Transmembrane domains, a Rab11-binding domain and a lipid-binding FYVE finger domain. The encoded protein appears to promote Neurite formation. A mutation in this gene has been reported to be associated with Hereditary spastic paraplegia, however the Pathogenicity of the mutation, which may simply represent a Polymorphism (biology), is unclear.
